37 week update (a little late)

At my appt. on Friday, we got to see James via a sonogram again. His weight estimate is now 6 lbs. 12 oz. That's a big difference from last week! The doctor said the estimate can be off by a pound in either direction. The good news is, there was difference from week to week, so he's definitely growing. I had all the usual things checked... urine, weight, blood pressure, and baby's heart rate. Again, all was good. The doctor is now checking my cervix each week. Last week there was no progress, but this week I am 2 cm. dilated and 60-70% effaced. My doctor said she'll either see me in Labor and Delivery sometime this week, or at my next appointment next Friday. We took from that, that James could be here anytime!! We can't wait to meet him!

Exciting!! Although, not to be a "Debbie Downer" but my SIL was 1 cm. and 75% at 34 weeks and she was a week late! I never was checked until after my due date but my doc thought I would go early too, and I was 10 days late. I hope for your sake he's early though. :)
